About the host
Hosted by Chrissy Ray
Hi! We’re a family who loves the outdoors, good food, and spending time together in the beautiful Idaho mountains. We fell in love with the Cascade area because there is always something to do—from relaxing by the lake and paddleboarding to hiking, fishing, skiing, and exploring the charming mountain towns nearby. We love sharing our home with guests who want to slow down, enjoy the outdoors, and make memories with family and friends. We’ve tried to create a comfortable, welcoming space with the things we appreciate when we travel—a well-stocked kitchen, cozy gathering spaces, games, and easy access to all the outdoor adventures that make this area so special. We hope you love Cascade as much as we do and have an amazing stay!
Why they chose this property
Our neighborhood is peaceful, wooded, and surrounded by the natural beauty of Cascade. One of our favorite things is being just a short walk from the lake, with trails leading to private sandy beach access—perfect for swimming, fishing, paddleboarding, relaxing, or watching the sunset. We love that you can enjoy the quiet of the mountains while being close to some of Idaho’s best outdoor adventures. In the summer, spend your days on the lake or exploring nearby trails. In the winter, you’re within easy driving distance of Tamarack Resort and Brundage Mountain, making this a great four-season getaway. With Donnelly and McCall nearby for dining, shopping, and activities, you get the best of both worlds: a peaceful mountain setting with easy access to everything you came to Idaho to enjoy.
What makes this property unique
What makes our property special is the combination of easy lake access, mountain adventure, and a comfortable home designed for families and groups. You can walk to Cascade Lake and enjoy private sandy beach access, bring your boat or trailer, and have two paddleboards ready for your lake days. After a day on the water, come home to a fully stocked chef’s kitchen, Traeger grill, cozy fireplace, and game closet. We’re also perfectly positioned for year-round adventures, with Tamarack Resort and Brundage Mountain nearby for skiing, plus hiking, fishing, mountain biking, and exploring throughout the warmer months. It’s the kind of place where you can spend the day adventuring and the evening relaxing together—without having to choose between a peaceful setting and convenient access to everything the area has to offer.
